How does your body work?

There are electrical-chemical impulses (messages) that leave your brain and travel across your nervous system to all parts of your body. Your body then assesses its internal and external environment and sends impulses back to the brain telling it what’s going on and what changes need to be made. This system controls ALL of your body functions.
If the bone structure of your head and neck is in its proper position, the nerve impulses from the brain can flow freely throughout the body. If the head and neck are misaligned, it causes neurological stress, pain, and tension. Research shows that this interference to the nervous system can cause:

Can it be corrected?

A N.U.C.C.A. Chiropractor incorporates the National Upper Cervical method of Chiropractic (N.U.C.C.A.) to gently release the chronic holding patterns of the body that are responsible for stress, pain, wear and tear. Our method is also very effective in rehabilitation of auto, sports, and on-the-job injuries.
This type of spinal correction involves a precise, gentle adjustment to the upper neck. The primary functions of the body, including relaxation, are controlled in this area. The N.U.C.C.A. procedure is based on mathematically-exact formulas that have been developed through years of scientific postulation and clinical application… the mechanics involved produce structural correction and realignment throughout the entire body.

Specific Cervical X-Rays
In order to know how to correct the problem it is necessary to x-ray the bone structures. The condition which is causing the symptoms is too small to be seen or felt on the surface of the skin. (This condition is termed a subluxation or misaligned vertebrae.)
